Presentation

Well we presented today in class. My piece seemed to go over well. I think I out in unnecessary nat sound in some spots which I'll take out before posting on here (if I can figure it out)... Everyone did a pretty good job out of what we've heard so far. I'm excited to hear my story probably more than the one I created  it's weird been on the other end of the microphone.

Done

I finished the audio piece at 4AM. Running on barely any sleep is not fun but I'm done for a little bit. The piece I exported in .wav and .mp3 just to be on the safe side when presenting. Bring on the critiques. 

Powering through

Its almost 2:30 in the morning and I'm just now getting around to figuring out what I'm going to say in between my speakers clips. I wish I didn't have two projects and a test tomorrow in addition to this all due tomorrow. Could be a lot easier if they were spaced out, but alas, here I am. 

Interview

I had my interview with Katya on Sunday. I went and met her and we recorded each others stories. I used a zoom recorder and she talked for about twenty minutes. So far I have it edited down to about 4 minutes of content! Whew. I have some basketball sounds that I found and will put in. I think I'm going to have to do a little voice over work to make sure it has a nice intro and flows smoothly. So far so good!

First newscast

Well we had our first newscast today in my MC 406 class. I was a reporter so I made a package which was about the reptile expo. I brought in an actual bearded dragon to be on my jacket while I talked on camera. It was a chaotic show to say the least. No one knew what was going on or how the show worked. We had little to no direction but powered through it and it will be airing on Channel 8 locally. Here's to hoping next week goes smoother!

Busy Bee

I've got so much going on its crazy. It's my senior year and I picked up another job so now I have three! Why do I do this to myself?! This semester will definitely test how much patience I have and how well I can balance all of my classes, work, and extracurriculars. For now, I'm sitting at Kite's having lunch with friends, enjoying some free time before the week gets too hectic. Let's go!
